Treasure first and not later

Yesterday, went down to TTSH with my working cell group brothers to see a fellow colleague's wife who fainted during the CNY period, around on the 3rd day, with the initial diagnose as lack of oxygen in the brain.

we went abt lunch time, the doctors were discussing things in medical terms. YC check out with the nurse how is the condition, the nurse replied not too good...we prayed.

then the doctors with my colleague went into the icu room to do tests, we wait outside for about 1 hour, was a long wait...till 1.30 we went down to kopitiam for our lunch.

after a quick lunch, suggested to go up to check how is her condition.

my colleague was standing in the room. no good. she is considered brain dead.

we went in and prayed for her...

my colleague's son was brought to hospital by the teachers...the scene is heart breaking...God please have mercy for her and the whole family...Yes Lord...please hear our prayers Lord...in Jesus name we prayed...amen.

a death in a family where the first kid is not in primary school and the second child is less than a year old...we left the hospital and went back and shared the news with my boss.

will wait for further news...

To all who read this post...would take this chance to say...nothing in life is able to be predicted by man...please treasure whatever you have now...no matter how bad in financial, health, physcially, mentally state...or how minor things are...the sky is beautifully blue and not sickly black...the grass is richly green and not dried yellow...you are still better off than a lot pple...please dun grumble...be thankful of everything that are placed in your life...thankful please...

Thank you Lord my God...amen
